68 RFE VALVE BODY UPGRADE
Part #: 1030360 2007-11 (Early Model)
Part #: 1030361 2010-12 (Late Model)
PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLATION
AFTERMARKET TUNERS OR TCMS
There is a number of aftermarket TCMs and TCM reflashes available in the aftermarket. At BD we have tested the H&S unit and found it to be somewhat beneficial. IF USING AN AFTERMARKET TCM PROGRAM YOU MUST DISABLE THE TRANSMISSION MAINLINE PRESSURE INCREASE. It will directly conflict with the BD module; the BD module will provide a better sweep of pressure and will deliver better results.

Valve Body Plate Verification
Due to Chrysler now mixing solenoid connector colors independent of model years. The previous method of using the main electrical connector color, as a way to determine the application is no longer accurate. Please use the method stated below.
Before proceeding, you will need to visually inspect your transmission to verify the correct plate has been ordered. The most accurate method is to check the model year is by the label or peened number on the side of the case. These numbers can also be found on the driver’s side of the transmission right below the main connector. The two letters will indicate an early or late model.
AA Early Model
AB Early Model
AC Early Model
AD Early Model
AE Late Model
AF Late Model

Valve Body Installation
1. Disconnect vehicle batteries and secure cables away from batteries.
2. Lift transmission dip stick approx. 6 inches to avoid interference later on.
3. Raise vehicle on vehicle lift. If using a jack, use safety stands and chock wheels.
4. Remove shifter cable from transmission for better access to the main electrical connector.
5. To remove connector, push red tab (1) downwards. Then, press the black tab (2) which will allow the white handle (3) to be rotated downwards, releasing the connector from the transmission.
6. Position drain pan below the transmission.

20. Ensure that all the check balls are still in the correct locations in the upper half of the valve body. Early model valve bodies have seven check balls. Late models valve bodies will only have five check balls. If this part has been contaminated in any way, it must be thoroughly cleaned before reassembly.
21. Install BD separator plate. Ensure it fits flat on the valve body.

22. Re-install bottom (smaller) half of valve body. Ensure it fits flat on the separator plate. It may need to be worked downwards while rocking to be installed over the dowels. Install attaching screws so they are fully seated but do not tighten until the solenoid pack has been installed.
23. Re-install solenoid pack onto valve body. Be sure to properly align the pin on the solenoid pack with the slot on the valve body. Due to the alignment dowels, the valve body may need to be wiggled down into position. Install solenoid pack attaching screws. Install remaining Torx screws to fasten the solenoid pack to the valve body.
24. Torque all valve body Torx screws to 55 in-lbs, working from the center outwards. Carefully check that no screws were missed.
25. Inspect the three rubber seals on the top of the valve body, replace with supplied seals if they are nicked or otherwise damaged. Ensure the seal mating surface on the transmission is clean.

26. Wipe clean the bore on the transmission case around the electrical connector. Scrape all old silicone gasket material (if any) from the oil pan mating surfaces.
27. Check that the shift lever on the valve body lines up with the shift lever on the transmission and lift the valve body back into the transmission. Start the 8mm screws by hand, do not tighten yet. Work the shift lever on the outside of the transmission case by hand to ensure that the lever is making contact with the valve body correctly.
28. Torque the valve body attaching bolts to 105 in/lbs.

through different gears twice to fill valve body. Check for leaks. Check fluid level
again. Top up as required.
35. Road test. Run through upshifts several times at light throttle to ensure
transmission is shifting correctly. Shifts will feel firmer with increased throttle.
36. Recheck fluid level.

TECH Bulletin – Protect68 Kit, P0871 DTC 2007.5-2009 68rfe
The protect68 kit is not designed to correct an already damaged transmission. Its purpose is to increase the reliability through increasing torque holding capacity of the transmission. This is done by dynamically increasing the main line pressure of the transmission; this directly effects the apply pressure to the clutches. By increasing main line pressure, a number of existing problems are amplified. Namely wear in the valve body, specifically the SSV bore. On high mileage vehicle >80,000 miles (>140,000km) 2007.5-2009 trucks were highly susceptible to this damage. Model years after and including 2010 have an updated valve body that includes a hard anodized body the cures this problem. To identify the updated valve body you will notice the main housing will be a deeper grey in color. The symptom would be a P0871 DTC (OD Pressure Switch Rationality fault). This DTC would normally be set in 4,5,6 gears at full throttle. If this is the case in which your vehicle has set this code before or after installing the protect68 your valve body has worn. The cheapest solution for this is to repair your valve body, or you can buy a new updated valve body from Dodge. If you would like to repair your valve body, please be aware that it is a difficult repair. Please take the valve body to a machine shop or a very experienced transmission repair facility that has the proper equipment. It is also suggested to inspect the transmission clutches for wear as it maybe time to freshen things up. You can purchase the repair kit from Sonnax. http://www.sonnax.com/product-lines/transmission/parts/4151 92835-18K F-92835-TL18 http://www.sonnax.com/product-lines/transmission/parts/1311 VB-FIX is an optional piece, although recommended.
